Love in Action

"Dear friends, let us love one another, for love comes from God. Everyone who loves has been born of God and knows God." 

-1 John 4:7

Greetings Ministry Partners,



As we celebrate Christmas this year, our hearts are reminded of the immeasurable love of our Lord Jesus Christ. He came into the world not as a powerful king, but as a humble servant, willingly sacrificing His life so that sinners like us might receive the greatest gift of all: eternal life. His love is the foundation of our faith, our hope, and our mission. Because He first loved us, we are called to love one another.

Praise God for His love that continues to flow through each of you who pray and support the CCI mission in Thailand. I pray that God will bless you with good health, strength, and growing faith, so that you may continue to be a blessing and share the love of Jesus Christ with many.

Through your faithful support, CCI continues to train evangelists and Bible-grounded leaders who boldly proclaim the good news. Because of this investment, the gospel is spreading in ever-increasing measure. We praise God that more than 50 churches have now been planted nationwide, all led by students trained in God’s Word. Their lives and ministries testify to the power of equipping believers to become true disciples and disciple-makers.

Your prayers, generosity, and partnership make this ministry possible. You are part of every life transformed, every village reached, and every church planted. This Christmas, we thank God for you and pray that His rich blessings, peace, and joy will fill your heart and home.

May the love of Jesus Christ shine brightly in Thailand and around the world through our united efforts. Merry Christmas, and may God bless you abundantly.

With love and gratitude,

Kittikun & Ying Meetang

CCI Thailand National Director

Staff Update

God’s Financial Principles Seminar

We recently had the opportunity to conduct a seminar on God’s Financial Principles at two locations: a church in Bangkok and the Akha Brotherhood Church. The Akha church has been a vital part of ministry for more than 50 years, and both pastors and leaders were eager to learn.

Over two days, we trained church committees and local leaders. Everyone participated with enthusiasm and gained a clear understanding of the importance of being committed leaders who manage God’s resources faithfully. They also learned how to apply biblical financial principles in their personal lives and families.

We thank God for how the leaders listened, understood, and were encouraged to follow God’s path in financial stewardship. We believe that as they obey God’s principles, He will bless their lives, families, and ministries.

Training Leaders from Laos, Myanmar, and Thailand

Pastor Jimmy, Pastor Sompet, and I had the opportunity to teach Bible training using the CCI curriculum to Hmong leaders under Pastor Gideon's leadership, the Center's Director. He brought leaders from Laos, Myanmar, and Thailand for this training, which took place in Chiang Mai Province.

The purpose of this training was to prepare these leaders to return to their own areas and cultures for missionary work. Thailand is an excellent location for Bible teaching because the cost is low, the environment is safe, and there is freedom without legal or police oppression. Many missionary organizations have established training centers here.

After being trained in Thailand, we can follow these leaders back to their countries to continue training. This is an excellent opportunity for us to join hands with these organizations to develop and send out leaders to preach the gospel, make disciples, and plant new churches.

Eastern Region Ministry – Pastor Panya Anurat

Pastor Panya Anurat, the Eastern Region Coordinator, led CCI students on a field mission to the Ban Khok Phai community. The team preached the gospel, led people to Christ, prayed for the sick, and distributed rice, dried food, and basic supplies.

As a result, one student surrendered fully to God and committed himself to serving as a church planter. He began preaching and witnessing, leading several people to faith. He continues to follow up faithfully by visiting, teaching the Bible, and praying for them. These believers are now growing in faith and courage, openly witnessing and inviting others to come to Christ.

New Class in Nan Province – Coordinator Jet Saefan

Praise God for opening a new class among the Mien brothers and sisters in Chiang Rai. They are very interested in and eager for training. We thank the coordinators and teachers who will be teaching the first course.

We pray that this new class will be successful under their guidance and that it will expand further into Indochina.

Mae Hong Son Province – Pastor Atsadong Fairomyen

Thank you, Lord, for Your faithful guidance this month. God has led every ministry effort to go well, including teaching, teacher training, and the From the Cross to the Crown seminar. I thank the Lord for His protection and direction.

Last month, I visited the Ban Nam Phueng classroom, where five students are studying Book 3, New Testament Survey. The atmosphere is intense with enthusiasm and seriousness about learning. I have personally been encouraged through this class.

Mae Chaem District – Pastor Thiradech Sengkhe

Praise God for His leading and provision this past month. Throughout last month, I traveled to many places to serve the Lord, and through every journey I witnessed His greatness. He strengthened me and provided all that I needed, including the people He appointed for me to meet.

I thank God for the CCI organization that strengthens me and gives me opportunities to serve through the CCI curriculum. Even with frequent travel, I remained filled with God’s peace and power.

Northern Region Outreach – Pastor Jimmy Khamput

The CCI class in Muang District, Mae Hong Son Province, is made up of students from many churches working together in unity. Through outreach, the gospel is being brought into new areas. Without outreach, the gospel would remain in one place. Outreach is a key principle of missions.

Thank God for leading me in this work. Through this ministry, I have truly experienced the heart of missions and have had the opportunity to reach almost every tribe in the north. It has been a great joy to serve across many cultures.

Testimonies

"I decided to study at CCI after listening to Ajarn Prachaya Phonchai and seeing that many areas in the Eastern region have opened learning centers, so I invited my fellow Christians to join. When I started studying, I gained a deeper perspective and understanding of the Bible. Before, I had only skimmed through it and finished it. Now, I read it and understand the context, which leads to interpretation and application. The lectures are enjoyable and friendly. The teachers have teaching methods that help us remember the Bible well. I have benefited greatly. Thank you, God, thank you, teachers. Thank you, CCI. God bless you."

"I believe it is God's plan that provides the opportunity to study His Word, and throughout my time there, I have gained a deeper understanding of His Word and His promises to His people. God's Word has also taught me to trust in Him even in times of joy and sorrow. Thank God for this Bible class."

-Kanlaya Laokitcharoenwong

CCI Student

"I am a first-year alumnus of Ajarn Jamie Khamput's class. I attended classes with my classmates, but only took five courses. Having been prepared for service through CCI classes at the Lawa Church in Chiang Mai, I was able to move back to my hometown. This allowed me to serve according to my gifts and assigned roles. I was assigned to serve as a youth leader and an elder, and I am responsible for visiting, teaching, and preaching. I continue to use the CCI materials in my teaching and as a study and ministry guide. Thank God for the life-preparation knowledge I gained through CCI classes."

-Datu Rawa

Christmas is a special opportunity for us to express God’s love. Here in Thailand, people gladly give gifts, share blessings, and gather in joyful celebration. Local churches across the country prepare Christmas programs with excitement, and the season has become one of the most recognized festivals nationwide. What a blessing that God allows this cultural openness to create doors for us to speak about Jesus.

Yet sharing the gospel in Thailand remains a challenge. With Christians representing only a small percentage of the population, many still view Jesus as a foreign figure, a Western religion rather than the Savior of all nations. But the truth remains: Jesus Christ came for every tribe, every language, and every people, including the Thai people whom God loves deeply.
